St. Louis County officials declared a state of emergency in the US city of Ferguson, Missouri on Monday, marking one year after the police shooting of an unarmed teenager, Michael Brown. About 60 people were arrested on Monday when protesters blocked traffic lanes on a major highway, and another 100 were arrested on Tuesday.

Officers are being hit with rocks and bottles. We continue to support free speech, but agitators who ignore orders to disperse risk arrest.

Netizens fired back in response to the declaration of a state of emergency with the hashtag #WhichEmergency, highlighting a range of issues they say afflict black communities in the US, from poor education to police violence. The hashtag has been used more than 10,000 times in the past day.

#WhichEmergency the one where schools are underfunded, our neighborhoods are over policed, and our access to resources are slim to none?

@theladysmiles argued police body cameras couldn't bring justice. Some even say the cameras fail to serve as surveillance of police activity, especially if police officers fail to hit the record button.

#WhichEmergency the one where body cams have proved true what blk people have been saying for years but you still do a whole lot of nothing.

Others are pointing specifically to incidents of aggression towards black women in the US, including the case of Sandra Bland who died in police custody under disputed circumstances after being arrested during a traffic stop. Six of the nine victims of the race-motivated shooting in a black church in Charleston, South Carolina in June were women.

#WhichEmergency? The one in which no one can tell us exactly what happened to Sandra Bland in that cell?
